Basketball Thrills Wildcat Basketball Team Gets Set For New Cage Season Tests Weber's basketball program will get under way Friday, Nov. 24, against the BYU Frosh squad at Springville, Coach Reed Knute Swenson announced. The team is making steady pro�gress under the watchful eyes of Mr. Swenson in the daily drills held at the school gym. Over thirty cage artists turned out for the open�ing practice and Swenson is well pleased with the attitude of the boys who are in suit this year. The first cut has been made and slowly the outstanding casba per�formers are beginning to show through. The entire squad will make the trip to Springville to give them the opportunity to work out against competition. Outlook Good for Team Things are looking good for the team this year and the entire stu�dent body is hoping for a repeat performance of last year's terrific team. It will take plenty of good material to floor a team equal to the 1949-50 team. They scored first place in the I.C.A.C. conference, first in the Region Four, competing with schools from the Intermountain area, and then they went to the Nationals at Hutchinson, Kan., and walked off with sixth place in the entire Nation. Outstanding Performers of Last Year Weber boasted an Ail-American On the squad last year by the name of Darreil Tucker, a hard driving, sharp shooting little Freshman. Tucker also placed on the honor team of the conference and the Region. Keith Seweli also won a berth on the first term in the con�ference and Region. This year's team will have more height than any for several seasons at the Wildcat lair. Bill Hull and Martin Steele, both passing the 6'5 markers, are looking very good for the Swenson coached machine. The schedule for this year fol�lows: Basketball Schedule 1950-51 Nov. 24 B.Y.U. FVosh at Spring�ville. Dec. 11 Weber at College of Idaho, Caldwell. Dec. 12 Weber at Clark College, Van Couver, Wash. Dec. 13 Weber at Vanport Col�lege, Portland. Oregon.

Reported Improving The outlook for basketball this season looks rather bright with re�turners and new-comers making a good showing for Head Coach Reed Knute Swenson at the daily drills held in the gymnasium at 4:00 p.m. Showing up good with his speed, accurate shooting and all-around field play, Bob Harbertson looks like he'll aid the Wildcats cause , very much during the course of the heavy Weber schedule. He pulled down an all-State spot last year while performing for the j Ogden high Tigers, who took the Big Eight championship. Fellow Teammates ""Big Bill"" Hull, a former team mate of Harbertson, is also show�ing great possibilities with his dead�ly hook shots, tip-ins and control of the boards. He handles his six foot five frame very good for a big man and the share of the points should fall toward Hull. The Sophs have turned out some excellent cage artists this year. Glen Mclntyre, Larry Woods, Keith Downs, Marv Steele, Don Dinsdale, Glen Ashby, LeRoy Stone, Sherm Wayment and several other stand-outs are in suits and showing up very well. Weber Has Good Chance Weber may trot a team on the floor to equal the sparkling casba squad of last year. They have plenty of good shooters and some outstanding floor men. If the team. stacks up the way it looks, Weber will have some excellent chances to walk off with honors again in the Intermountain basketball races. Good Schedule Planned The Weber coaches have outlined a sensational schedule for Ogden city fans and all in all some fine basketball demonstrations should be evident on game nights. Such teams as Clark, Vancouver, Vanport, Centralia, Olympic, Comp�ton, B.A.C., Sice, Ricks, U.S.A.C. frosh, and Boise will furnish the opposition for the Wildcats. Petite Elaine Barker upon looking in at basketball practice admired the size of Martin Steele, (left) and Bill Hull, who both hit over the 6'5 marker. Needless to say, these boys are really going to help We�ber's chances this year. Wildcats Upset Centralia In First Game CENTRALIA, Wash.. Dec. 15 (Special) Weber college registered victory number two, as against two defeats on her current basketball tour into the northwest by trim�ming Centralia here last night, 61 to 51.
